They have won an impressive 16 points at Turf Moor following Saturday's 3-2 victory over Bournemouth and the small, spartan changing rooms must be a culture shock for some pampered Premier League superstars.

Quaintly housed underneath the ground's away stand, they aren’t the warmest and have barely changed since Jimmy Adamson’s days as manager.

Boyd, who sealed victory with his first goal of the season, says they help make Turf Moor ­unappealing for away teams.

“No-one wants to come here,” he said. “I think it’s always been like that. The crowd get on the away team’s back and it’s just not like any other ground.

“We use that to our advantage and even when we were in the Championship last year, no-one liked playing here.”

It works and, before Sunday’s games, Burnley’s five league home wins equalled the combined total for Manchester United and Manchester City.

Jeff Hendrick knows what it feels like being in that away dressing room and the Clarets’ record £10.5million signing never won at Turf Moor with previous club Derby.

“It’s a lot smaller,” said the Republic of Ireland midfielder. “A lot of people say it’s a fortress.

“I’m sure when teams look at the fixtures and see they’ve got us away, they probably don’t want that. It’s a hard place for teams to come to and we’ve got to make sure it stays that way.”

It also helps when Hendrick is scoring ‘worldies’ like his volleyed opener and his strike will take some beating in December’s Goal of the Month competition.

Stephen Ward poked home a second and Benik Afobe pulled one back for ­Bournemouth. Boyd settled matters, making Charlie Daniels’ late effort nothing more than a consolation.

Burnley’s away form could hardly be more different and if they are to add to their solitary point at West Ham on Wednesday, Boyd said: “We’ve just got to take that intensity away from home.

“If we could do that then with our home form, we’ll be fine.”

Bournemouth left Jack Wilshere on the bench for two-thirds of the game to keep him fresh for the home game against Leicester on Tuesday, and Nathan Ake claims they can’t expect to repeat their remarkable comeback against Liverpool every week.

The Cherries were 2-0 down before they started to play and the on-loan Chelsea defender said: “We need to start from the first minute.”
